Abstract: A furniture system (600) includes an inner back (620) and a conversion mechanism (800) which operates so as to move the inner back (620) from a sofa configuration to a sleep configuration. A table assembly (700) is also provided which utilizes a table mechanism (710) so as to permit a user to manually adjust the height of a table top (701) among three functional positions.

Abstract: A furniture system (400) includes a furniture back (408) having a back front surface (410). A desk (414) having an upper work surface (434) extends forwardly from an upper central portion of the front back surface (410). The system (400) also includes a pair of bases (426) with a pair of seats (424) positioned above the bases (426). A spatial interior area (427) exists between lateral sides of the seats (424), and the desk (414) is centered laterally between the seats (424). The furniture system (400) is movable between sitting configurations and sleeping configurations.

Abstract: A fully upholstered, ready-to-assemble article of furniture which may be custom ordered by a consumer, packaged by the seller for shipment to the consumer by a parcel delivery service, and then assembled by the consumer from the packaged components. The article of furniture includes a frame of a plurality of interlocking, planar frame members which are secured together by fasteners received in push-in connector elements. Upholstery coverings, the design of which is custom selected by the consumer, are attached to the frame and secured to one another by hook and loop fasteners. Foam elements are received within a second plurality of upholstery covers which have large openings for receiving the foam elements to provide cushions for the article of furniture. The frame members, upholstery covers, and foam elements are packaged in first, second, and third containers, respectively, which are each light enough to be shipped for home delivery by a parcel delivery service.

Abstract: A system and method for buying and selling fully upholstered furniture for direct delivery via a parcel delivery service such as, e.g., FEDERAL EXPRESS GROUND and UNITED PARCEL SERVICE. A computer system may be utilized having a remote computer to contact a server via a computer network such as the Internet. The server stores information relating to availability of furniture types and upholstery cover styles and communicates order information to an order receipt and fulfillment center for transmission via direct parcel delivery to the consumer. The furniture of the current invention comprises fully upholstered full-scale furniture (e.g., chairs, loveseats, sofas, sofa beds, and ottomans) including a frame having a plurality of interlocking planar frame members which are secured together by fasteners received in push in connector elements. Upholstery coverings are attached to the frame and secured to one another by, e.g., hook and loop fasteners or zippers and are separately returnable.
